Heart’s Desire

[Verse 1]
Night's falling on me like a big black coat
Staring through the window at the empty cold
Thick, white smoke rolling off my lips
My chest feeling heavy like a cannonball
Got sweat rolling down me like a waterfall
'Cause I let love slip through my fingertips

[Chorus]
Ooh ooh, hey, I'm a raging fire
You're my heart's desire, hey

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2]
Slippin' in and out of a restless sleep
Thinkin' and wonderin' if you are thinkin' of me
Or are you long gone girl, with another man
The thought brings me right up to the brink of rage
Like a lion in a rusted-out circus cage
I want to break these bars, make you understand

[Chorus]
Ooh ooh, hey, I'm a raging fire
You're my heart's desire

[Verse 3]
When I finally settle into a midnight dream
You're walkin' through a field of flowers, smilin' at me
So I reach right out and try to touch your skin
Then a mornin' breeze blows and I almost taste
Your sweet scent drippin' on my pillowcase
Damn this day, here I go again

[Chorus]
Ooh ooh, hey, I'm a raging fire
You're my heart's desire, hey!

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 4]
I don't think I can really take no more
Like a prize fighter laying on the canvas floor
I hear the clock bell ring, struggle to my feet
It's been fifty-two rounds with your memory
I'd go fifty-two more if it'd make you see
Girl you mean the world to me

[Chorus]
Ooh ooh, hey, I'm a raging fire
You're my heart's desire
Ooh, ooh, hey, I'm a raging fire
You're my heart's desire
